Tonight we have Yellow in third, Royal Blue in second, and Purple in first. Currently it’s looking like Purple is the team to beat, but anyone who has been to MSC knows…

He talked about three different places in which we need to develop good habits: in the worship service, at home, and…

Maybe not

We thought that everyone was in bed, but apparently some cabins had other plans. Boy Cabins 10 and 11 decided to have themselves a “cabin war” in which they launched water balloons and silly string at each other on the upper sports field. Here’s a picture of the chaos that ensued.
